KJBL (96.5 FM) is a radio station licensed to Julesburg, Colorado, USA. The station is owned by Armada Media - Mccook. The station has obtained a construction permit from the FCC for a power increase to 55,000 watts. The construction permit would increase the height above average terrain from -32.4 meters to -21 meters. This will allow KJBL to become a class C1 station and significantly increase its coverage area.^[1][2]

Along with carrying oldies, the station airs local high school football games. The station carries local news as well. Music on KJBL is primarily satellite fed.

History
